Abstract

To prove that mitochondrial DNA damage is not total or partial, as has been found in the preliminary study, studies need to be done to determine the opportunity of successful use of the mitochondrial DNA mini-primer set in an amplicon product below 250 bp. This is important because it can overcome quality problems in degraded DNA, which will complicate the process of DNA forensic identification. This was an observational analytic study with cross sectional design. The study material was DNA from blood and sweat stains taken from abandoned bodies. Samples consisted of 24 pieces of blood and sweat spots. The measurements of mean DNA levels and sample purity used UV-Visible Spectrophotometer, revealing mean DNA in blood samples of 152.89 ± 85.71 µg/ml and sweat samples of 89.19 ± 5.58 µg/ml, and sample purity of DNA  and sweat were 1.89 ± 0.71 and 1.69 ± 0.76. Whereas, the result of D-Loop mtDNA: D-Loop I 143bp nt: 16268 -16410 and D-Loop HVS II 126bp nt: 34 -159, indicating blood spots were detected positively >95% and sweat was detected positively in 5%-20%. Results of DNA sequencing from mtDNA of blood spots and sweat spots in 126 bp and 143 bp amplicon revealed nucleotide damage marked with the letter 'N'. In conclusion, mini-primers of mitochondrial DNA in the amplification product mtDNA D-Loop HVS II 126 bp (nt 59-134) and D-Loop HVS I 143 bp (nt 16268-16410) were effectively used as support for DNA profiling in forensic medicine.

Abstract

Frontoethmoid encephalocele (FEE) causes maxillofacial structural abnormalities and also covers some bony landmarks, especially in the glabella region. This study examined the faces of frontoethmoid encephalocele patients before undergoing corrective surgery with the aim of identifying and assessing their facial morphological differences. This was a cross-sectional study from January 1, 2016 to June 31, 2017. A simple anthropocephalometric measurement was performed on the patient's face who would undergo surgery. Periorbital and mid-face measurements showed differences between the patients and normal groups. The midface structure of the patients clearly changed. The age when the procedure was taken also had effect. Preoperative 3DCT is proposed to describe the facial anatomy of EFE patients. Further studies in this field are suggested to produce a comprehensive database of facial morphology changes in FEE populations, both pre- and post-operatively, with the intention of producing a redefinition of FEE cases based on anthropo-cephalometric principles.

Abstract

This study aimed to identify human DNA from mixing human and chicken blood samples by utilizing Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) and cytochrome b gene primer. The cytochrome b gene is a gene located in mitochondrial DNA and has high variation of sequence relation between one species and another. PCR analysis was performed using human cytochrome b gene primer in variation of DNA templates (0 ng, 0.01 ng, 0.1 ng, 1 ng, 10 ng and 100 ng), human blood percentages (100%, 50%, 40 %, 25%, 10%, 5%, 1%, 0%) and sample age before analysis (0 day, 3 days, 7 days, 10 days, and 15 days). The minimum DNA template obtained in this study was 0.01 ng and minimum percentage of human blood in the mixture was 1%. Blood spots on cloth isolated on days 0, 3, 7, 10 and 15 could still be analyzed and the resulting of DNA band (157 bp) had the same intensity/thickness. From the results of this study, it can be concluded that human blood in the mixture of human and chicken blood can be identified using PCR with specific primers of cytochrome b gene. PCR using specific primer of cytochrome b gene may help forensic practitioners to identify human sample in mixed biological samples.

Abstract

This study aimed to know the existence of relationship between knowledge, attitude and implementation of BSE among midwifery students and mathematics students of Universitas Airlangga. This study used analytic observational method with cross-sectional approach. The sampling technique was the proportional sampling, consisting of 30 students of midwifery and 30 mathematics students. Analysis used was univariat and bivariat analysis with Spearman Rank. The significance level was 0.05 (5%). This study showed that 90% of midwifery students had good knowledge of BSE, 66.7% had sufficient attitude and 46.7% performed BSE in sufficient category. As many as 66.7% students of mathematics had sufficient knowledge about BSE, 63.4% had sufficient attitude and as many as 60% performed the BSE in the less category. The statistical test revealed p value = 0.267 for midwife respondents and 0.467 for mathematics respondents. Statistical test on the relationship between BSE attitude and implementation had p=0.100 for midwifery students and 0.407 for mathematics students. As a conclusion, there was no relationship of knowledge, attitude and implementation of BSE in the students of midwife and students of mathematics.

Abstract

The present study aimed to determine the potency of erythropoietin as angiogenesis inducer in ischemic stroke rats model. Animal model was treated by right unilateral common carotid artery occlusion (rUCCAO) for 90 minutes. The stroke model produced decreased motor function. Eight to 12 week-old Wistar rats were used. rHuEPO was administered for 7 days, starting at 24 hours after stroke induction. Motor functions were measured before and 1, 3 and 7 days after rUCCAO. Whereas, histological damage and VEGF expression were evaluated at day 14. The results showed that rHuEPO significantly increased motor function on day 7, reduced the number of damaged body cell and increased VEGF expression in the thalamus area on day 14. As a conclusion, rHuEPO may restore the motoric function and prevent brain neuronal death by inducing angiogenesis through the increase in the expression of VEGF in rUCCAO-induced ischemic stroke model.

Abstract

Caesarean section is the delivery through a surgical incision in the abdomen and uterus with various risks, such as Surgical Site Infection (SSI) which either occurs rapidly (24-48 hours postoperatively) or delayed. To reduce the risk of various post-cesarean section infections, prophylactic antibiotics are given. The administration of prophylactic antibiotics with recommended regimens, such as in developed countries as in the United States and Europe, with first generation of cephalosporins has not been applied in Dr. Iskak Hospital, Tulungagung. This hospital still used other types of antibiotics, such as cefotaxime or ceftriaxone. In addition, for several reasons, prophylactic antibiotics were continued with other antibiotics to reduce the risk of delayed infection. This study was designed to analyze the effectiveness of prophylactic antibiotics as recommended in cesarean section. This was a prospective observational study with consecutive sampling type, examined 41 mothers with cesarean section at the Department of Obstretics and Gynecology, Dr. Iskak Hospital, Tulungagung, Indonesia. This study was conducted from May to July, 2017. The results of the study showed that the effectiveness of prophylactic antibiotic use was 98% based on the clinical parameters and maternal laboratory outcome, which showed that SIRS was in normal category. Whereas, there was one mother (2%) who had SSI on day 10 postoperatively.

Abstract

Brain traumatic injury (BTI) is one of the causes of death and disability worldwide that affects people regardless of sex, age, income and social status, race, or nationality. In patients with brain traumatic injury, one of the problems that occurs is Diffuse Axonal Injury (DAI) that can produce a direct clinical effect, leading to coma and death. Adrenocorticotropin analogues (ACTH) is one of neuroprotective therapy in brain injury. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of ACTH analogue on the clinical output (Glasgow Outcome Score/GOS and Bartle Index) in patients with DAI at hospital discharge, 3 months and 6 months post-treatment. This study revealed that ACTH analogue administration resulted in higher GOS and Barthel Index scores than that in control. Further study will required with other variables, such as cognitive and motor examination, and some biomarkers can also be examined serially.Brain traumatic injury (BTI) is one of the causes of death and disability worldwide that affects people regardless of sex, age, income and social status, race, or nationality.

Abstract

Tuberculosis in children is often a systemic complication because of their imperfect cellular immune system. ESAT-6, CFP-10, and MPT-64 are small molecular dominant antigens secreted by Mtb into the blood and filtered by the kidneys into urine. The high proportion of children with TB cases according to the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia in 2013 was 7.9%-12%. Diagnis is difficult to establish with sputum and blood samples. Therefore, it is necessary to support the diagnosis using urine samples with ICT rapid test. The purpose of this study was to determine the examination of Mtb ESAT-6, CFP-10, and MPT-64 antigens in the urine of pediatric TB patients with ICT to support the diagnosis. The method used was analytic observation with case control design. The results of the study showed that 32 of the urine of children with TB who were examined with ICT, 22 showed ESAT-6, CFP-10, and MPT-64 positive and 10 negative. Whereas, from 32 urine of healthy children, 25 were negative and 7 were positive. Analysis results showed 95% confidence (CI), p = 0.0002 (p <0.05), 78% specificity and 68.8% sensitivity compared to TB diagnosis from pediatricians. As a conclusion, Mtb ESAT-6, CFP-10, and MPT-64 antigens can be examined in the urine of pediatric TB patients with ICT to support the diagnosis.

Abstract

Food and snacks sold are usually fried using oil that has been used for frying repeatedly. Oil that is repeatedly used for frying is often called waste cooking oil. Waste cooking oil is a source of exogenous free radicals that can trigger oxidative stress. To prevent this, sufficient antioxidant intake is needed. One source of antioxidants is red rosella. The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of giving red rosella petals on the conditions of oxidative stress in Sprague dawley rats exposed to waste cooking oil through MDA testing. The research method used was Completely Randomized Design (CRD). The sample consisted of 24 male rats which were randomly selected and divided into 4 groups: negative control (no treatment), positive control (administered with waste cooking oil of 8.92 meq/kg as much as 2 ml/kgBW), treatment 1 (administered with waste cooking oil of 8.92 meq/kg as much as 2 ml/kgBW and red rosella petal brew dosed of 540 mg/kgBW, and treatment 2 (administered with waste cooking oil of 8.92 meq/kg as much as 2 ml/kgBW and red rosella petals brew dosed of 810 mg/kgBW). The results of the one way ANOVA analysis (a=1%) and the Tukey HSD test showed the p value of MDA=0.00, indicating that all treatments had significant effect. In further tests, it was found that all treatments contained differences in MDA values. The best value in the treatment was by giving a dose of 810 mg/kgBW (serum MDA of 2.22 nmol/ml). It can be concluded that the administration of red rosella petal in doses of 540 mg/kgBW (EC50=407.52 ppm) and 810 mg/kgBW (EC50=247.82 ppm) can improve the oxidative stress of Sprague dawley rats.Food and snacks sold are usually fried using oil that has been used for frying repeatedly.

Abstract

46,XX testicular disorder of sexual development (DSD) is characterized by male phenotype with 46,XX karyotype. The incidence rate is 1:25,000 in male newborn. Infants with ambiguous external genitals will be confronted with issue of gender assigment and may result in a stressful condition in the parents. Since gender assignment is inevitable, several factors should be considered in DSD management. The management approach for children born with DSD is individualized and multidisciplinary. Gender assignment aims to facilitate the patient to obtain the best quality of life. Adaptation of children with 46,XX testicular DSD as a determinant of quality of life is also influenced by psychological and family conditions. The purpose of this report was to observe medical growth and development aspects of the child with 46,XX terticular DSD as indicated by the aspects of growth and development, and health related quality of life, as well as the influential aspects. PA, 18 months, was diagnosed with 46,XX testicular DSD. The patient routinely visited to endocrinology clinic, urologic surgery, and child psychiatry clinic from the age of 6 months. The parents decided to raise patient as male. The patient had undergone surgery for hypospadias correction, hormone injections, child growth monitoring, and psychological monitoring (medical records of  Dr. Soetomo Hospital, Surabaya in 2015). Management should consider individual and multidiciplinary accompaniment of the patient and parents, the importance of group support, and follow-up to adulthood, as well as possible longterm outcomes that will occur in the future so that the patients and the parents need to be prepared.
